Positioned adjacent to the prestigious beachfront community of Bijao—separated only by a legal easement—this exceptional coastal property represents one of the most compelling development opportunities currently available on Panama’s Pacific coast.

The estate is composed of two strategically located parcels. The larger portion, totaling **3 hectares plus 3,667.1 m²**, borders directly with Bijao and features remarkably fertile soil, mostly flat topography, and expansive development potential. Directly across, separated by a servidumbre, lies the second parcel (**2,695.06 m² + 1,236.93 m²**) with private access and a natural descent to the beach. This oceanfront section also benefits from a **Concesión Administrativa de Uso de Suelo de Servidumbre de Ribera de Mar** of **1,130 m² and 98 dm²**, adding substantial strategic value for coastal use and long-term planning.

One of the most important and rare advantages of this property is that it already has approved land use. In Panama, especially in interior coastal regions, most raw land acquisitions require buyers to initiate and navigate the zoning and land-use approval process before any project can begin—a procedure that can take a year or more. This property eliminates that uncertainty entirely.

The land is officially zoned **RM2 by Panama’s Ministry of Housing and Land Management**, permitting the development of multifamily residences, private villas, cabins, or even a boutique hotel. For investors focused on tourism, hospitality, or high-end residential projects, this classification dramatically accelerates feasibility timelines and reduces entitlement risk. Securing this type of zoning in advance is uncommon and significantly increases the property’s intrinsic value.

Topographically, the land is predominantly flat—an important advantage for construction efficiency and cost control. Its elevated cliffside position provides constant natural ventilation, breathtaking panoramic views, and a sense of privacy rarely found in beachfront development sites. At the same time, the property enjoys direct access to the sea, blending dramatic oceanfront presence with practical usability.

Adding immediate livability to the offering, the property currently includes a well-maintained residence in excellent condition. The existing home features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open-concept kitchen, living area, and a covered terrace ideal for enjoying ocean breezes. There is also a storage room, a private water well, and a spacious yard. The house can continue to serve as a primary residence, weekend retreat, or on-site base during future development.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully usable coastal estate with approved zoning, direct beach access, elevated ocean views, fertile land, and adjacency to one of Panama’s most established resort communities. Whether envisioned as a boutique hospitality project, a luxury residential enclave, or a long-term land bank investment, the fundamentals are already in place—saving time, reducing risk, and unlocking immediate potential.
